About Nilgiris
The Nilgiris district, home to the hill station of Ooty (Udhagamandalam), has been a sought-after retreat since the British colonial era. The Nilgiri Mountain Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage rack railway, climbs through tea-carpeted slopes and 16 tunnels from Mettupalayam to Ooty. The district is also home to indigenous tribal communities like the Toda, Kota, and Irula, whose traditions predate recorded history.
